The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Chapter 231 A Cold Husband

“Mr. Charles, Mrs. Charles is here. We couldn’t stop her. She’s heading toward your office.” The phone

rang with the anxious voice of another secretary outside.

Allen Charles frowned. Greatly displeased, he said coldly, “I see. Go on with your work.”

He hung up the phone and looked at Ms. Carol, “We’re going to the airport right now.”

“Allen!” Yolanda opened the office door and walked in with a big smile on her face.

Yolanda was wearing a dainty pink flowing dress today. She was apparently dressed up for the

occasion from her hair to her makeup. She was dazzlingly beautiful, just like four years ago.

However, no matter how gorgeous she looked, Allen wasn’t impressed at all. He grabbed his coat on

the back of his chair and gave the self-invited Yolanda an indifferent glance. His voice was cold, “I’m on

my way out to take care of some official business. I’ll talk to you later.”

He walked around her to the door.

“Allen, I’ve brought you lunch. I made it myself. Why don’t you take a lunch break before you go back to

work?”

Yolanda hurried to stop him and then raised the lunch box in her hand with an ingratiating smile.

It took her more than two hours to prepare his lunch this morning.

Allen frowned and said impatiently, “This is the mayor’s office, not a public restaurant. I’m at work right

now and you’re interfering with my work.” Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

“Allen…” Yolanda pursed her lips and said with an aggrieved look, “I care about you. It’s almost 12

o’clock and it’s time for lunch, Allen, you…”

“Get out of my way!” Allen interrupted before she could finish, “Since you have too much free time, why

don’t you go take good care of Lillian? Don’t always leave her with the maid, because a child needs a

mother’s love more than anything else.”

He left the office with a cold face.

“Mrs. Charles…we’re leaving. Bye.”

Ms. Carol bowed to Yolanda awkwardly and quickly left the office with Allen.

Yolanda was suddenly left alone in the huge mayor’s office, completely dumbstruck.

“Allen Charles, you’re a bastard!”

Yolanda let out a hysterical scream and smashed the lunch in her hands to the ground. It was scattered

all over the floor.

“Why? Why are you doing this to me? Can’t you be nice to me? What’s it about me that you don’t like?”

She looked at the lunch lying on the floor that she had worked so hard to prepare for her husband, and

couldn’t help bursting into tears.

It had been four years. Joey had been gone for four years. She had been working hard on her own for

four years, too. Not a day had gone by without her racking her brains to figure out how to get Allen to

change his mind, even if he could look at her one more time. However, even if she had achieved

something, she had failed to make him fall in love with her again.

Although she had given birth to their daughter Lillian, his indifference towards her hadn’t gone away at

all. Instead, he had been treating her and their daughter with nothing but growing indifference.

“What exactly do you want? After four years, haven’t I been good enough for you? Allen Charles, why

are you so cold-hearted?”

After weeping for a short while, Yolanda forced herself to hold back her tears. She had never been a

weak person, and Allen’s indifference only aroused the fighting spirit in her heart.

The past four years was her best proof of that.

She swore that she would conquer this man. She knew she could.

Just as she was getting ready to leave his office with high spirits, she accidently caught sight of the

photo on the desk. The framed photo of Allen and Joey hugging and laughing irritated her instantly.

She was consumed with jealousy.

She rushed to the desk and grabbed the frame, trying to smash it into pieces. But she somehow

stopped her hand in the air.

“Joey, you’re a nuisance. You’ve been gone for four years and Allen still couldn’t forget you. What is so

good about you? I just don’t get it. Are you prettier than me? Are you nobler than me? Are you richer

than me? No, you’re nothing better than me.”

Looking at Joey in the photo, she ground her teeth and said to herself. She took the frame apart to take

out the photo inside, and replaced it with another one with her and her daughter Lillian in it.

Yolanda looked stunningly beautiful in the photo and her three-year-old daughter Lillian in a pink lacy

dress looked adorable. The little girl’s delicate feature was a miniature of her mother’s, and their

resemblance was striking.
